OA routing in Encounter

[eklikeroomys]

Has anybody routed an OA design in Encounter? According to my understanding, if you create an OA design , you do not need to specify any LEF in Encounter. However, when I try to route my OA design, the router requests a LEF file? This is confusing

Hi,
If you specify set rda_Input(ui_oa_reflib) in .conf file, it will not ask for LEFs. Otherwise, it will asssume that the flow is LEFDEF Flow and will ask for lef files.

Do I have to enter this step manually? If so, where is this .conf file and how do I specify this?

I have found this .conf file, and the set rda_Input(ui_oa_reflib) option, should I remove the set rda_Input(ui_leffile) option?

Yes. You should remove ui_leffile option for OA flow.

And say loadConfig a.conf 1
